Ground UP vs Top Down

JBKlyde · 07-07-2012, 05:07 PM

I think if you really wanted a grass roots sort of government ron paul would be your choice... top down is a theocracy because it is God above who is ruleing... and it's not a kick in the gut the white cat died of "bone cancer"....

Besides, who would vote for god? He screws up on a regular basis - forest fires that burn out of control for days on end; horrific storms that kill people and leave everyone sweltering at record temps - never mind tsunami's and earth quakes. It would be like having in the White House an over-sized child under going the terrible twos. No thanks.

well did it ever occur to you that God is mad because the leaders in the white house are not behaving correctly and if the leaders started following Christ like he was King and not just as you put it "a 2 year old", then maybe we'd have eternal blue sky's and rain bows..

Wow, I hope not. That kind of weather leads to drought. Ask Texas.

I prefer coffee beans ground up and women with their tops down.

yea that's a really GOOD aditude.. one thing i thought if black people can have 'niggers with aditudes' then white people can have 'white boys with whips' that might be an unfair advantage..

That makes sense. After all, God made you the way you are because he was mad at your parents for not behaving correctly and following Christ.

SamIam · 07-07-2012, 11:34 PM

Yeah, but what if god is really a Buddhist? Then what?

JB, you do understand that you are posting in a community made of a majority of atheists and agnostics?

Most would identify as smart asses before any other affiliation.

JBKlyde · 07-10-2012, 03:03 PM

well I'm just a "numb skull" or maybe as my dad put it "numb nuts".

There are probably thousands of Christian forums on the Net, JB. You should join some. I'm sure you'd get the responses you seek on one of them. On the Cellar you're only going to find a bunch of mischievous monkeys, typing away.

joe - you do realize that JB is here to save us all from ourselves, right?

Why would God care what one particular country's leaders are doing? Is it just the ones in the White House? Or is it all leaders everywhere?

Why would the malpractices of leaders count for more than the thousand and one small acts of kindness and compassion shown by ordinary people every day?
